Chapter 200 Xu Damao's Promotion
Xu Damao felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by He Yuzhu. His brows were slightly furrowed, his eyes flickered, and he seemed to be a little guilty. He stepped back subconsciously, crossed his hands in front of his chest, and made a defensive posture, while asking: "Silly Zhu, why are you looking at me like that?"
He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao's appearance, feeling both amused and helpless. He couldn't help laughing, shook his head, and said unhappily: "I look at you like this, of course, to see if you have the potential to be a deputy director."
Xu Damao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he pointed at himself with an uncertain expression on his face: "Director? Me? Are you kidding?"
He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao's reaction, a smile appeared on his lips, and he emphasized: "It's not the director, it's the deputy director."
Xu Damao was completely stunned. He couldn't believe his ears. He suddenly approached He Yuzhu, with a sly smile on his face, and asked, "Shazhu, you are my brother. Tell me what deputy director you are and make me happy."
He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao's eager and excited look, and couldn't help but frowned slightly. He gently pushed away his approaching body, and then said calmly: "It's the deputy director of the canteen. If you want me to take you to see Deputy Director Li."
When Xu Damao heard this, a look of surprise instantly lit up his face. He held He Yuzhu's arm tightly with both hands and asked nervously, "Deputy Director of the Canteen? Can I do it if I can't cook?" There was a hint of uncertainty and worry in his words.
He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao's nervous and expectant expression, shook his head with some disdain, and said, "It doesn't matter if you can't cook. Just tell me whether you want to be the deputy director or not. Why is a grown man so hesitant?"
When Xu Damao heard what He Yuzhu said, he felt relieved and a firm expression appeared on his face. He straightened his chest and answered He Yuzhu affirmatively: "Yes, I dream of becoming the deputy director."
He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao's serious expression, nodded, and said, "Just your words are enough. Okay, go back and pack up. I'll take you to talk to Deputy Director Li about this matter this afternoon."
Upon hearing this, Xu Damao showed a happy smile on his face. He nodded in agreement quickly, then stood up and greeted He Yuzhu: "Okay, Shazhu, I'll go back and prepare. See you in the afternoon!" After that, Xu Damao left happily.
......
After lunch in the afternoon, Xu Damao came to He Yuzhu's office excitedly without waiting for He Yuzhu to find him. He was wearing a Zhongshan suit, and it was obvious that he had changed his clothes at home.
He Yuzhu looked up and saw Xu Damao dressed like this, and couldn't help but joked: "You went back home and changed your clothes?"
Xu Damao chuckled and said with some pride: "Yes, this is related to my happiness for the rest of my life, so I have to take it seriously."
He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao, who was so excited that every cell in his body seemed to be beating, smiled and shook his head, and said, "Okay, you sit there and rest for a while. When we go to work in the afternoon, I will take you to see Deputy Director Li."
When Xu Damao heard this, he immediately waved his hand and said, "I don't need to rest. I'm not tired at all."
He Yuzhu looked at him, smiled helplessly, and said, "You may not be tired, but I am. Sit there and rest for a while." After that, he closed his eyes, looking like he didn't want to say more.
Seeing this, Xu Damao had no choice but to sit down and shut up. But his eyes kept glancing at He Yuzhu, and it was obvious that he was still full of anticipation and excitement.
As soon as the afternoon work announcement sounded, He Yuzhu opened his eyes. He looked up and found Xu Damao standing in front of him, staring at him with his eyes piercing. He Yuzhu was startled and said angrily, "What are you doing?"
Xu Damao looked at He Yuzhu's frightened expression, and a little embarrassment appeared on his face. He scratched his head sheepishly, and a hint of apologetic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He said softly: "Didn't I hear the broadcast? I wanted to see if you were awake, but I didn't expect to scare you."
He Yuzhu sighed helplessly, shook his head and said, "I was awakened by you even though I wasn't awake yet. Let's go quickly." After that, he stood up, tidied his clothes, and took Xu Damao to Deputy Director Li's office.
Xu Damao followed closely behind He Yuzhu, his pace seemed a little anxious, but he tried to remain steady. He secretly observed He Yuzhu's expression from time to time, fearing that he would cause any more trouble.
Arriving at the door of Deputy Director Li's office, He Yuzhu knocked gently on the door, making a "knock knock knock" sound. After a while, Deputy Director Li's unique voice came from the office: "Come in!"
He Yuzhu opened the door and walked in with Xu Damao. They both greeted at the same time: "Hello, Director Li!" Their voices were full of respect.
Deputy Director Li looked up at the two of them, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes. He first glanced at He Yuzhu, then turned his gaze to Xu Damao and asked, "What do you want to see me for?"
He Yuzhu smiled and said to Deputy Director Li respectfully, "Director Li, this is the case. The position of deputy director of our cafeteria is currently vacant. I would like to ask you if you have any other arrangements?"
Xu Damao, who was standing nearby, clenched his fists nervously and stared at Deputy Director Li with expectant eyes, afraid of missing any details. His heartbeat accelerated, as if he was waiting for an important verdict.
Deputy Director Li looked at the two people, especially Xu Damao's nervous and expectant expression, and he already knew their purpose. He smiled lightly and said:
"Yuzhu, you are the canteen director, so you can just arrange the position of deputy director and report it to me. I don't have any special arrangements for the time being."
He Yuzhu felt relieved when he heard this. He turned to look at Xu Damao, a hint of encouragement flashed in his eyes, then turned to Deputy Director Li and said:
"Director Li, what do you think of Comrade Xu Damao who is beside you? He is very active in his work and has outstanding abilities. I think he is very suitable for this position."
Upon hearing this, Deputy Director Li turned his gaze to Xu Damao and looked at him carefully. He nodded and said, "Comrade Xu Damao is indeed good. He has performed very well as a projectionist and has brought many high-quality movies to our factory."
Hearing the praise from Deputy Director Li, Xu Damao showed a happy smile on his face and the tension in his heart was slightly relieved.
Seeing this, He Yuzhu struck while the iron was hot and said, "Director Li, since you also recognize Comrade Xu Damao's ability, do you think it would be appropriate for him to take the position of deputy director of our canteen?"
Deputy Director Li pondered for a moment, then looked at Xu Damao and said, "Comrade Xu Damao can be the deputy director of the canteen. But have you arranged your job as a projectionist?"
Xu Damao quickly assured: "Don't worry, Director Li. I already have an apprentice here. He can take over the projection work and it will not affect the normal operation of the projection room."
After hearing Xu Damao's answer, Deputy Director Li nodded slightly, and his expression seemed to be a little more relaxed. He thought for a moment, then said:
"Since there is no problem with the work arrangement, the job of deputy director of the canteen will be handed over to Comrade Xu Damao." After saying that, he picked up the approval note on the table and handed it to He Yuzhu.
He Yuzhu took the note with a grateful smile on his face. He bowed deeply to Deputy Director Li and said repeatedly: "Thank you Director Li, thank you so much!"
Deputy Director Li smiled and waved his hand, indicating that they were welcome. He picked up the teacup, blew the tea leaves gently, and then slowly took a sip of tea.
Seeing this, He Yuzhu and Xu Damao knew it was time to leave, so they stood up and said goodbye to Deputy Director Li.
After leaving Deputy Director Li's office, He Yuzhu handed the approval slip to Xu Damao and said, "Just send it to the broadcasting room. You can come to work tomorrow."
Xu Damao took the note and smiled excitedly. He said to He Yuzhu, "Thanks, Shazhu. I'll go to the broadcasting room now!" Then he turned and ran away, and disappeared in a moment.
After a while, a clear and loud voice came from the broadcasting room: "The steel mill projectionist - Xu Damao has been promoted to deputy director of the canteen. Please be notified!" This notice was repeated three times on the radio.
